Description:
|
Electic Asheville, North Carolina - Beer City USA - is the home to the Enka Triathlon at Biltmore Lake. Celebrating its fifth year under the direction of Glory Hound Events, the race has established itself as one of the premier events in the region.
The 750 meter swim in Enka Lake should be wet-suit legal ('10 temperature was 73 degrees) and is extremely clean as motorized boats are not allowed on the lake. The 17.5 mile bike leg is fun and challenging, providing athletes with a steady mixture of climbing, descents and flat terrain. There are gradual climbs at the 3 and 11 mile marks that will separate the field. The run is virtually flat on a dirt/gravel trail except for a section on road at mile 1 that goes up into the development across the lake. After completing the neighborhood loop, runners will return to the trail for the remainder of the circuit around the scenic lake to the finish line. Race capacity is capped at 350 participants to maintain the integrity of the venue and we expect this race to fill by race day.
